Hi,
the colon is a delimiter between message ID (in term of the Camel's
folder summary, not necessarily the Message-ID header of the email (if
I'm not mistaken), though this one looks like a Message-ID generated by
the Camel itself) and the message flags. It can be that the message
flags had been changed, but the local summary wasn't updated.

> or are these spurious messages?

I used to get them too some time ago, but, as usual, once I tried to
investigate it further the behaviour stopped and I had just bad luck.
If I recall correctly, it had something to do with the virtual Trash
folder (backtrace can show that).

It is a bug, or the Maildir provider might be updated, to not get crazy
like this when the message flags on the file name change, but the
summary is not updated. After all, it's a valid state, because the
Maildir folder can be shared with multiple applications, especially
when it's a custom Maildir account in the Evolution.
Bye,
Milan

Where did the message come from?  As a Message-ID that looks weird.

According to RFC2822 Message-ID is ::alpha::|::digit::|[!#$%&'+-/=?^`{}|
~.]

[Evolution] possible issue re maildir file names

[Reid Thompson]

EVO 3.21.1

built on 5/20 from source
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 36832 May 20 08:13 /usr/bin/evolution

i'm getting hundreds of messages of the form below as evo tries to
'refresh?' one of my maildir accounts.

Message:
Cannot get message 1455899158.8491_34134.raker3 from folder 
/home/rthompso/.maildir-sent/.OBC-PROD
No such message


but if i look for what i believe to be the file that the message is
referencing...

it exists:

$ locate  1455899158.8491_34134.raker3 
/home/rthompso/.maildir-sent/.OBC-PROD/cur/1455899158.8491_34134.raker3:2,

with content:

/home/rthompso/.maildir-sent/.OBC-PROD/cur/1455899158.8491_34134.raker3:2,


is evo truncating the filenames at the colon?
or are these spurious messages?

thanks

Hi,
it looks like the
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=721712
is back (this is not a query to reopen it, it's only a reference to a
bug where this was supposed to be addressed, which dates back to
3.12.11, thus something which is included in 3.18.x).

Killing the evolution-calendar-factory is also fine, it will take with
itself the subprocesses too.

Yeah, it's quite unlikely to see it with the On This Computer/Personal
calendar. Maybe a bug after the first run there (just after
initialization of the calendar after the first run for that particular
used). I do not know. It's possible to run the evolution-calendar-
factory from a terminal to see what it and its subprocesses do, the
command can be:
   $ /usr/libexec/evolution-calendar-factory -w &>/tmp/ecf-log.txt
There is no need to kill the previous process first, the new one will
replace the currently running. It's better to re-start processes which
use it, though, which includes the evolution and the evolution-alarm-
notify. Just an idea for the debugging, but as the restart of the
processes help, then the factory run from the terminal will not
reproduce the issue, most likely, because it's the same as the process
restart. Replacing the real evolution-calendar-factory process with a
script which will call the original factory with redirected output to
some file is an option too. I sometimes use(-d) it myself, to let the
process run through the D-Bus machinery, as it should be.

Milan

Oh yes! I know agenda in French is calendar in English, but having
always the word "agenda" under my eyes troubled me a bit. My
apologies. 

I checked the permission and "moi" ("me") is the owner
of ~/.local/share/evolution/calendar and its content (can create and
delete files)

JFTR, when executing Evolution from a terminal with the LANG variable,
it temporarily could run with English translations. Running

  LANG=C evolution

should do it.

It should be OK to use, it's not normally read only. Check the
underlying file permissions in ~/.local/share/evolution/calendar and
subfolders/files.  Everything should be writeable by your username.

Try running Evolution from the command line as well to see if any more
detailed error messages are shown.

I have also seen this occasionally - on CalDAV calendars.  I
**suspect** it has something to do with Evolution thinking it is
offline, or the calendar is unreachable, or something like that.  Once
it believes that it seems to get stuck in that belief - but I cannot
make it happen consistently enough for it to be reproducible.

Rather than reboot I exit Evolution an kill the evolution-calendar
-factory-subprocess processes.  Start evolution and it is good to go,
again.

I have NO IDEA why that would ever happen on the 'default' local
calendar - which I believe is what the original poster is describing.

OK I see. I didn't do any configuration. I thought the displayed agenda
after installation was directly usable but it is not. After creating a
new one locally, I can use it.
I don't understand, what the first agenda is for as it cannot be used.

I have the same problem from time to time. 
My calendar is on Google.
I usually did a Reboot of the system and it did work then...

In the bottom left corner, click on the Agenda button. Then the agenda
is displayed. Right click in day cell then "New appointment" ("Nouveau
rendez-vous" in my language, could be "New event" in English). The
appointment (event) windows is displayed (see snapshot). It displays
the following message: "This event cannot be modified as the selected
calendar is readonly" (translated by me from "cet événement ne peut
être modifié car l'agenda est en lecture seule").
It is impossible to enter any text in the text fields.___

And where is the calendar - is it under "On This Computer" or is it
remote?  If remote, what sort of calendar is it? (CalDAV? On the Web?
Google?)
